Ball Corporation has recently undergone a significant shift in leadership as former CEO John Hayes departed suddenly, with Ronald J. Lewis stepping up to replace him. This transformation comes amid a flurry of activity for the multinational packaging company, including winning the approval of German authorities for its bid to acquire a majority stake in European can manufacturer, Benepack. Ball Corp also intends to expand into India with a $60m investment in an aluminium packaging plant. Developments on the business front include successfully floating $750m of senior notes, launching a $250m accelerated share repurchase, and initiating a partnership with Red Bull and Rauch on an integrated facility. Despite recent challenges like narrow margins in the North America segment and financial hiccups including stock underperforming the S&P 500, Ball Corp continues to show resilience. Its Q3 2025 results revealed in-line earnings as global volumes climbed, further validating its optimistic outlook and faith in smaller can sizes for beverages.
